Brit Hume Proselytizes On Fox News Sunday
Reported by Priscilla - Sun 12:29 PM
Truly amazing. First we have professional Christian Ann Coulter telling Sean
Hannity that Muslims should convert to Christianity. Now we have "born
again" Christian Brit Hume advising Tiger Woods to abandon his Buddhism and
convert to Christianity.

Brit Hume, on this morning's Fox News Sunday, said: "He is said to be a
Buddhist. I don't think that faith offers the kind of redemption and
forgiveness offered by the Christian faith. My message to Tiger is, 'Tiger
turn to the Christian faith and you can make a total recovery and be a great
example to the world."

But maybe Hume is on to something. That redemption thing, that includes a
public "I have sinned" moment and the embrace of Jesus as your new BFF,
worked for Hume's Republican right wing soulmates like convicted felon and
"Family" member, Chuck Colson and those Republicans responding to a "booty
call" such as Senator David Vitter, Newt Gingrich, and Governor (also a
"Family" member) Mark Sanford.

One wonders how Bill Kristol, a Jew, felt when Hume extolled the benefits of
Christianity. It's interesting that Hume, whose conservative credo is based
on personal responsibility, scoffs at the Buddhist faith which is all about
personal responsibility without the get out of jail free card that
Christianity offers. Hume's statement, on a nationally televised "news"
show, that Christianity is superior to Buddhism, is just another example of
the "Christian" religious parochialism (bigotry?) and cultural insensitivity
which seems to be endemic to Fox News - America's Christian Newsroom. Praise
the Lord.

Another idiot on FOX exposes himself to ridicule.

Buddhism is a 'way of life', not a faith based religion.
